 Comparing apples to apples
Comparing apples to apples
I bashed Jeff McInnis (well, his play) a fair amount this year. But was he actually better for the Cats than Matt Carroll? What Emeka and Nazr? Trying to find a better way to compare them led to some surprising results.

 Are you listening Emeka?
Are you listening Emeka?
Emeka, please big like Elton and Baron. Money isn't everything (easy to say for someone who will never be offered a multi-million dollar contract).

 8 Ways to Become Champs
8 Ways to Become Champs
What do the Celtics, Lakers, Spurs, and others have in common? They are good. The Bobcats are not. Can the Bobcats follow in the footsteps of these other teams to become great? The magic 8-ball says: My sources say no.

 Trading For Sheed?
Trading For Sheed?
Thanks Chad Ford - Like Joe Dumars really needed help ripping of the Bobcats again. After reviewing your trade proposal, I'm going to have to decline (which probably means the Cats are thinking hard about accepting right now).

 Help Wanted - Must Be Tall
Help Wanted - Must Be Tall
Breaking news flash coming in: The Bobcats need big help. Ok, so it is not really a new thought - but it is true in both the literal and figurative senses of the word. Here's a post looking at just how bad most of Charlotte's bigs were last year.

Draft Notes for 6/04/08
There might not be anyone the Bobcats should take at 9? The Bobcats should trade the 9th pick for 'Sheed? The Bobcats worked out who? Yeah, you should read this so the world will make sense again.

 Prospect Profile - Brook Lopez
Prospect Profile - Brook Lopez
A compilation of links and thoughts on various prospects, today focusing on Brook Lopez, the Stanford center. He's tall and probably more athletic than George Zidek. Yeah, that about sums it up.

The Bobcats MVP of 2007-08
Every team has one - but not all MVP's are created equally. This is one of those cases.

What about Emeka?
Emeka is calm and consistent - robotic in play and demeanor. So why does the team's results around him seem so manic? One month they are world beaters with him on the court - the next, the worst team in basketball with him playing - despite putting up nearly identical numbers. Bobcats Basketball - It's fantastic - if you're masochistic.

And the defense rests
Highs and lows of the Bobcats defense this season - where there have been more lows than highs. The numbers do seem to lend some credence to defense winning championships - the Cats win more win they play great defense than great offense. But why do they play better defense the faster the game is played?

Nazr Has Been A...
Godsend. Then a solid contributor. On to a matador and check-collector. Over the course of 3 months. Looking at the numbers, for him and the team, since the trade went down. Joe Dumars wins again.

The SGs and the Offense of the Charlotte Bobcats
Further proof that less can be more. The offense of the Bobcats performs better with Matt Carroll than Jason Richardson, despite Richardson's better individual stats. What gives? A look at some of the numbers.

Kobe Bryant is no MVP
Seriously? Well, yeah...kind of. Let's just say that one could make the case he isn't even the MVP of his own team, at this point of the season. In fact, it just might be the young giant that Kobe disparaged this summer - Andrew Bynum - I recommend you tell Kobe about this, and demand him to raise his game or that you want out of LaLaLand.

Charlotte Bobcats and Early Season Efficiencies
Who's fueling the Bobcats early season effectiveness? Not who you might think: Matt Carroll? Jeff McInnis?? Ryan Hollins??? No hidden camera, no one about to tell you you've been punk'd - it is the amazing truth.

The Charlotte Bobcats Against the Best of the NBA...by team
As a follow up to how the Bobcats did against All-NBA players, another look, but but broken down by team. Some surprises involved - Chris Bosh apparently has something against the Bobcats, but Kobe Bryant is not enough to carry the Lakers past the Bobcats.

The Charlotte Bobcats Against the Best of the NBA
How did the league's best, the All-NBA players, fare against the Bobcats? Pretty well, actually, which is to be expected. But how did they fare when they played the Bobcats best? Somewhat surprisingly, about the same - no running up the score against the scrubs for Tim Duncan and Kobe Bryant?

Taking the Bobcats to the movies
Charlotte may be relatively new to professional sports, but that doesn't mean there shouldn't be a sports movie about it (Juwanna Mann not included). Here are a few scripts that are re-worked to feature the Bobcats.

Time Travel as a Basketball Fan
Hindsight is 20/20, but unfortunately time travel is not possible, so it does not do much good as basketball fans to get too worked up over the past. There is value in learning from it though. Take a lesson from James Cole and Marty McFly on this one.

What is Gerald Wallace?
Gerald Wallace - Regarded as one of the more underrated players in the NBA. Enough so, in fact, that he may be about to become slightly overrated? Maybe - depends on what position he is playing. You'd think he's a great small forward and a decent power forward...but you'd be wrong. Flip it and you have what Gerald Wallace is.
